प्रश्न
Which would have a greater effect on the kinetic energy of an object : doubling the mass or doubling the velocity?

उत्तर
Kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the mass and square of velocity of the moving body. So, doubling the velocity will have a greater effect on the kinetic energy of a body.
